GameSetLinks: Uplink My TiQal, Please?

- As we gradually accumulate more sources here, the GameSetLink-age may even graduate to daily, instead of day-and-a-half-ly, as it is now.

But heck, there's just so much good material out there about games which doesn't get covered by mainstream news or blog sites, and we love crunching it into the brain and out onto the links.

This time round - XBLArcade.com finds game ratings hinting at a whole mess of new Xbox Live Arcade games, we dig out a speed run for Introversion's Uplink, of all things, and there's the rudest 'come back and play with us' subscription letter we've ever seen. Awesomeness:
